     * @class Ext.chart.series.Pie
     *
     * Creates a Pie Chart. A Pie Chart is a useful visualization technique to display quantitative information for different
     * categories that also have a meaning as a whole.
     * As with all other series, the Pie Series must be appended in the *series* Chart array configuration. See the Chart
     * documentation for more information. A typical configuration object for the pie series could be:
     *
     *     @example
     *     var store = Ext.create('Ext.data.JsonStore', {
     *         fields: ['name', 'data'],
     *         data: [
     *             { 'name': 'metric one',   'data': 10 },
     *             { 'name': 'metric two',   'data':  7 },
     *             { 'name': 'metric three', 'data':  5 },
     *             { 'name': 'metric four',  'data':  2 },
     *             { 'name': 'metric five',  'data': 27 }
     *         ]
     *     });

     *                     });
     *                     this.setTitle(storeItem.get('name') + ': ' + Math.round(storeItem.get('data') / total * 100) + '%');
     *                 }

     *         }]
     *     });
     *
     * In this configuration we set `pie` as the type for the series, set an object with specific style properties for highlighting options
     * (triggered when hovering elements). We also set true to `showInLegend` so all the pie slices can be represented by a legend item.
     *
     * We set `data` as the value of the field to determine the angle span for each pie slice. We also set a label configuration object
     * where we set the field name of the store field to be renderer as text for the label. The labels will also be displayed rotated.
     *
     * We set `contrast` to `true` to flip the color of the label if it is to similar to the background color. Finally, we set the font family
     * and size through the `font` parameter.
